It's the costs associated with keeping a horse that I find daunting. <BR/><BR/>My husband only falls back on one excuse: "can't eat it if she gets tired of it!".<BR/><BR/>Thanks for dropping by my blog. The best source on shearing sheep would be to just a book from a public library on raising sheep. Believe it or not, I still refer to mine. Every year, I take that book in the barn with me, prop it open to the shearing step-by-step and go for it! I start just like they recommend by bending the head to the side (it makes the sheep quite cooperative!) and start shearing at the chin and neck, although after that I pretty much go with the flow and the sheep's whim. The hind quarters I find by far the hardest because by then the sheep is getting tired, is overly sensitive around the "privates" and can do a lot of damage with the hind legs, which my sheep seem to enjoy kicking!Barbara from Nova Scotiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10153159534633872465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515845.post-1148825261331984112006-05-28T11:07:00.000-03:002006-05-28T11:07:00.000-03:00Great picture of you and your daughter and the hor...Great picture of you and your daughter and the horses.
